Sugar Land police searching for home invaders

Sugar Land police are looking for three men who forced their way into a home at gunpoint in the Eldridge Lakes subdivision on Feb. 8 and made off with an undetermined amount of cash, according to the Sugar Land Police Department.

A woman who lives at the home on Brookside Drive said a man knocked on her door at about 9:45 a.m.

When she opened the door, a man displayed a weapon and pushed his way into her house with two other men. The woman was forced to the floor, tied up and hit in the head with the gun, Sugar Land police said in a press release.

The suspects demanded money and asked what time her husband would arrive home. The woman's husband owns a vending machine company and frequently brings home large amounts of money, the report states.

The three men left with the cash before the husband arrived home.

The first suspect is described as being in his 20s, wearing a dark-red hoodie, blue jeans and a white shirt. The second man was in his mid 20s, about 5 feet 10 inches tall and wearing a black beanie hat, white T-shirt, blue jeans and a diamond earring in his right ear. The third suspect was wearing blue jeans and white tennis shoes.

After the three men left in a dark-colored sedan. The woman's injuries were minor and she declined medical treatment, police said.
